The 10 Most Badass Fictional Princesses

10. Princess Peach

As a result of the massive popularity of the Super Mario franchise, one that has spanned 4 decades now, Princess Peach is an indelible princess. Unfortunately, Princess Peach is probably the most vapid and least interesting princess on this list, as she rarely plays any role besides that of the helpless, futile princess. Mainly appearing in the Super Mario video games, though there has been a film, Princess Peach plays a very specific role. At the start of every game, she ambles around before Bowser, Marioâ€™s arch nemesis, captures her, which prompts Mario to undertake a massive quest to get her back. One would think that a princess would step her security up after being kidnapped so many times. All that being said, Peach has been featured in many a video game as a playable character, showing an aptitude for racing, tennis, and all-out brawling. Love her or hate her, Princess Peach is going nowhere any time soon, as â€œMarioâ€ seems to be one of those video-game franchises that will not perish, and neither will Peach.
